(Washington) The US defence department has released a press statement regards the airstrikes carried out by the USAF in Iraq against Iranian sponsored Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF) whom Tehran has been using to strike US assets in a silly little game that Islamic actors love to play in which to express their victimhood status.
In the press release the US made it quite clear it would go out of its way in which to defend its citizens from attack, which from the photos released show that they weren't messing about, regards sending a message:
We have information that confirms KH conducted the rocket attacks on Camp Taji on March 11th that killed three coalition members and injured fourteen others. We assess that KH has launched 12 rocket attacks against coalition forces in the last six months. pic.twitter.com/gMBAVkaWM7— U.S. Central Command (@CENTCOM) March 13, 2020
The slide shows the five KH locations that are known to have stored Iranian-supplied advanced conventional weapons that we struck at 6 p.m. on March 13, East Coast time, and on March 14 in Iraq.— U.S. Central Command (@CENTCOM) March 13, 2020

We have effectively destroyed these facilities and expect that they no longer contain the type of advanced Iranian-supplied weapons that were used in the KH attacks.— U.S. Central Command (@CENTCOM) March 13, 2020
